What it takes to keep
the surroundings clean ? – have you ever wondered when you walk past any area
which is untidy ! – other than blaming the system and expecting people to
refrain from throwing litter everywhere –

WE can make
a difference to the place around us – all that is required is ‘indomitable
will, few leading from the front and people cooperating ’ –
Sure you would have seen vinyl banners dotting the Mada veethis of
Thiruvallikkeni – yes SYMA is launching a ‘Cleaning Campaign’ – not a single
day job – with vision to keep Streets of Thiruvallikkeni divyadesam clean
forever. Together WE can do that – and SYMA looks
forward to your active participation.

Our Prime Minister
Narendra Modi made a great beginning with his pet initiative - Swachh Bharat Abhiyan. The Corporation of Chennai has also launched
a public campaign through various forums, including social networking sites,
for a `Clean Chennai' and to promote source segregation of waste. The Civic
body aims to make it ‘clean Chennai’ urging
the residents to take a green pledge and do their part in keeping their home, street, work space and city clean
and free from litter.

7th
December 2014 [Sunday] will catalyse Triplicane residents into action. With
brooms in their hands, pledge on their lips imbued with enthusiasm to make the
Divyadesam, a model place – a clean, hygiene place – volunteers of SYMA and passionate
residents will go around the Streets launching cleanliness campaign making the
Mada Streets around the Temple – ‘Litter-free Zone’, a clean area, where bakthas can walk with bare-foot around the Temple.

This is time to
rededicate SYMA’s avowed path of ‘clean environment’. SYMA is at the forefront in making the
residents of Triplicane realise that a clean litter-free environment is
possible, if only, we all dedicate ourselves in that. For three months from 8th
Dec 2014, South Mada Street, Thulasinga Perumal Kovil Street [TP Kovil St] and
Peyalwar Kovil Street are adopted and maintained by SYMA as a “Pilot
Project”. We are creating the necessary
infrastructure, spread the awareness making the residents getting involved in
keeping our place clean.

The Cleaning campaign
kicks-off with a grand campaign @ 7 am
on Sunday, 7th Dec 2014. Come without
fail. Please bring your family and make
all your known persons participate in the Campaign. Imagine more than 500 of us
cleaning the streets of Triplicane and what better service can we do, to our
Presiding deity of the Divyadesam – Sri Parthasarathi Perumal, as He blesses us
in His processions. It is a duty cast on
us to keep the Mada veethis devoid of all impurities. It is time that we
stopped people from spitting on the Streets and in public places. Together, we
will ensure a neat, clean, hygiene environment – it starts with Us, our Family,
our Street, our Area, ………. Our Nation.

Come,
Join us …… Together, we will strive to ensure that the Society is a better
place to live. The
details of the Campaign are available in
